We observe a strong suppression of the tunneling current at low bias in combination with vibron-assisted excitations. The observed features are explained by a strong electron-vibron coupling in the framework of the Franck-Condon model supported by density-functional theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-06-08T12:42:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "single-molecule transistor", "franck-condon blockade", "individual fe4 single-molecule magnet", "strong electron-vibron", "low bias" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "ACS" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
